Ex-JFS student Gaby Lebetkin placed the final flower in the crown of her award-winning Iconic Queen Head at the Chelsea Flower Show this week.
The 23-year old won her company, Veevers Carter Flowers Ltd, a gold award and a New Design Award.
This year’s Chelsea Flower Show’s highlights included a floral arch to celebrate the 90th birthday of the RHS patron, the Queen, and a 60-foot carriage from Belmond British Pullman, which forms part of the 6,000sq ft planted-up station in the Great Pavilion.
